Testimonials

Our family recently relocated from Houston, Texas to St. John's, Newfoundland for an oil and gas
job relocation. We were assigned personnel from a relocation firm called "Trans Island Relocation
Services Inc."

With the help of the services provided by Trans Island we had a smooth, worry free relocation.
The educated team engaged various settling-in services which offered us assistance with car
purchases, housing, school information and Canadian Services.

I would recommend the team at Trans Island Relocation Services for assignees coming to the
area and who require the expert assistance for their relocation in every aspect from shopping,
necessities, child care, great dining and many, many more to mention. Our process was a positive
and productive experience thanks to the helpful services of the team from Trans Island.

John & Julie Ryan

"I wanted to thank you and Trans Island for the services you provided and the three very high-quality
condominiums/residences that were located and leased to us during our exploration drilling project in
St. John's:
21 Prescott Street - Carriage House - Margaret's Place

... The entire experience was absolutely trouble-free when we engaged you and Trans Island to locate
suitable accommodations when we initially arrived and set up shop in April 2009. In fact, it took less
than a week to find what we were looking for and less than two weeks having the leases in place,
which you handled directly with the responsible individual in our Calgary office. I do appreciate you
handling those arrangements directly with Calgary, which allowed all of us on the team in St. John's to
concentrate on our project planning.

Thanks again for everything you've provided; you and Trans Island were certainly a valuable part of our
team."
